Re: siggy question...

Ocassionally I'll run across an element that is itty bitty when I place it and I'll think to myself, "Surely the designer did not make this this small!" In those cases, I open the element and drag it onto the canvas. It's usually because they forgot to remove the extra pixels around it. But that rarely happens.

I use the place feature all the time for everything except photos (when making an LO). I always want them to start off at their largest size. When making a siggiy, however, I use "Place" for everything!

Re: siggy question...

Ok, so Tricia, do you start with the right size canvas to start with and then do a PLACE? AND, do you just click on the element so it is highlighted and then go to file and place? Just want to make sure I understand because I want EASY too!

Re: siggy question...

Start with the size of canvas you want to end with (so the specs in the siggie guidelines in this case). From you blank canvas, go to File-Place and choose the element you want, double click on it or choose open and it will "plop" itself onto your canvas. Easy Peasy!
